The International Longevity Summit 2023 is an important event on the global conference circuit. The conference will provide relevant insights on longevity, expert education, AI, investment opportunities, and excellent networking opportunities at an exclusive location. Discover the science of longevity as well as current research on longevity and aging.
The International Longevity Summit Speakers
Dr. Tesfahun Admasu
Dr. Tesfahun Admasu
Dr. Tesfahun Admasu, Molecular and Cellular Expert SENS Research Foundation. He was awarded a master’s degree in Biochemistry from Addis Ababa University, Ethiopia, and a Ph.D. in Biochemistry from the National University of Singapore.
During his Ph.D. studies (2014-18), he identified drug synergy and investigated the mechanism based on “multi-omics” technology. This work led to seminal contributions to our understanding of aging and lifespan extension, which were published in Developmental Cell and Nature Scientific Data.
Dr. Tesfahun joined the University of Gondar and launched a master’s degree program in Biochemistry where he teaches Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.
At SRF-RC, Dr. Tesfahun applies CRISPRa/CRSPRi and next-generation sequencing-based transcriptome profiling to investigate the mechanisms of SASP-induced senescence and apoptosis resistance of senescent cells.
At the International Longevity Summit, Tesfahun Admasu speaks on biological mechanisms of aging, primary and secondary senescence.
David Wood
David Wood was one of the pioneers of the smartphone industry and is now a renowned futurist commentator.
David Wood
He spent 25 years envisioning, architecting, designing, implementing, and avidly using smart mobile devices. He co-founded Symbian, the creator of the world’s first successful smartphone operating system, and served on the leadership teams of Psion Software and Symbian from 1996-2009.
From 2010 to 2013, David was Technology Planning Lead (CTO) at Accenture Mobility. He also co-led Accenture’s “Mobility Health” business initiative. He now acts as an independent futurist, consultant, and writer, at Delta Wisdom.
As chair of London Futurists, David has organized regular meetings in London since March 2008 on futurist and technoprogressive topics. Membership of London Futurists now exceeds 3,800.
At the International Longevity Summit, Wood will be speaking on longevity and escape velocity.
